deaf14 mice harbor a nonsense mutation in Aspa. (A) Manhattan plot showing probability of linkage to deaf14 locus across the genome. A LOD score above 3 is indicative of linkage. This was observed for a single peak on chromosome 11, indicating that the deaf14 mutation is on this chromosome. (B) Haplotypes of 140 N1F1 mice for SNPs on chromosome 11. Mice were deemed affected or unaffected based on their click ABR. SNP identity is indicated on the left and chromosomal location is indicated on the right. The number of mice with each haplotype is indicated below. SNP locations were taken from Genome Reference Consortium Mouse Build 38 patch release 1 (GRCm38.p1). (C) DNA sequence of Aspa exon 3 in +/+ (upper panel) and deaf14/deaf14 mouse (lower panel). A c.516T>A mutation (*) is predicted to encode a p.Y172X premature termination of translation in the deaf14/deaf14 mouse. (D) Western blot of p26 whole brain lysates probed with anti-ASPA (upper panel) and anti-actin (lower panel) antibodies. The upper panel shows a band at 35 kDa, the predicted molecular weight of ASPA, in Aspa+/+ and Aspa+/deaf14 brain that is not present in Aspadeaf14/deaf14 brain. The faint band in the Aspadeaf14/deaf14 lane (*) is of a slightly higher molecular weight and is also present in the two other lanes, albeit almost obscured by the ASPA band. This is likely to be a non-specific band. The lower panel demonstrates that equal amounts of protein were loaded in each lane. NS, non-specific band; 14, deaf14.

Biological function summary
ASPA plays an important role in myelin sheath maintenance and acetate metabolism. This protein doesn't form part of a complex but acts independently in the cytoplasm and peroxisomes of cells. Its function is significant for the provision of acetate for lipid synthesis which is necessary for myelin production. By regulating N-acetyl-L-aspartate levels in the brain ASPA activity is linked directly to protecting nerve cells' structural integrity.
Pathways
The ASPA enzyme is involved in the aspartate and acetyl-CoA pathways which are central to cellular energy balance and lipid metabolism. Its enzymatic role facilitates the recycling of acetate which is vital to the synthesis of myelin lipids. The relationship of ASPA with enzymes like acetyl-CoA synthetase highlights its involvement in broader biochemical pathways fundamental to cell metabolism and growth.
